CVE-2014-5077

説明

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) implementation handled simultaneous connections between the same hosts. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash the system.

詳細

This issue does not affect the versions of the Linux kernel as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 as it doesn't provide support for AUTH chunks.

This issue affects the versions of the Linux kernel as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7. Future kernel updates for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7 may address this issue. This issue has been fixed in Red Hat Enterprise MRG via RHSA-2014:1083.

CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System) のスコアの詳細

Info alert:Important note

CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).

脆弱性の原因 (CWE) の理解

Availability

Technical Impact: DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart

NULL pointer dereferences usually result in the failure of the process unless exception handling (on some platforms) is available and implemented. Even when exception handling is being used, it can still be very difficult to return the software to a safe state of operation.

Integrity,Confidentiality

Technical Impact: Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands; Read Memory; Modify Memory

In rare circumstances, when NULL is equivalent to the 0x0 memory address and privileged code can access it, then writing or reading memory is possible, which may lead to code execution.
